| Abstract: | The present invention relates to a process for liquid-liquid sweetening of lighter petroleum distillates using metal phthalocyanine sulphonamide catalyst. In the process liquid-liquid sweetening of lighter petroleum distillates like pentanes, lighter straight run naphtha (LSRN), FCC cracked naphtha and gasoline is carried out comprising of mixing sour light petroleum distillates, alkali solution containing metal phthalocyanine sulphonamide catalyst in presence of air, whereby the mercaptans present in the light petroleum distillates are oxidized to disulphides, which being hydrocarbon soluble goes with the sweetened petroleum distillates, and the alkali solution containing is recalculated. | ||
| Licensing Option: | License is already granted. Technology has already been Commercialized. Further license is possible. | ||
